ABRAMS, Leonard. East Village Eye.

(New York, NY): Eye productions, 1979. First edition. Broadside newspaper. 48 pages. “Chilly Xmas”, issue for January, 1982. The most coveted, and by far the scarcest issue of the cool East Village Eye. This issue within Michael Holman’s interview with Afrika Bambaata, includes the first print appearance of the term “hip hop.” The issue also includes a centre-fold poster by Futura, cover graffiti by Lee Quinones, photographs of new York breakers, and an article on crew fashion. A very good copy of this scarce issue.
